Took my radiator apart to fix the core. I was cleaning off the old tank gaskets and found alot of deep pitting in the top tank, especially on the inside edges. I don't think new gaskets are going to seal the pits from leaking.
Has anyone had this problem and fixed it? What are some suggestions?

| Put aviation gasket sealer on both sides of gasket. Done. These radiators are NON pressurized, just needs to be water tight.

| I had this same problem with our Unstyled AO radiator. I sand blasted all of the rust out of the pit's. I then filled it with some Devcon Plastic Steel. Once it hardened I milled the gasket surface and painted the inside with Glyptol to seal it before assembling. That was 13 years ago and its still holding.
